Saw a programme on E4 at the weekend and they named Radioheads 'OK Computer' as the best album ever.
Surely that's bollocks?
Better than Revolver? Rubber Soul? Pet Sounds? London Calling? Etc, etc.............?
Who votes on these polls?
Fucking mongs..........................

Everyone has an opinion Hertha. I don't agree with it but it's a shitty poll so who cares? Think that was an old one anyway.

Fucking mongs.......................... The sort of people who watch E4 presumably...,think its a fairly well established fact that these vote things are stitched up. Bunch of media whores sit around having asked their mates stuff and make it up. As I suggested with the recent greatest song thread, something becomes great for you because it chimes a particular chord for a particular reason at a particular time.....the media crew at E4, were probally all getting stoned and angsty at some O*bridge college, when OK computer was around. Without doubt Space Ritual by Hawkwind is the greatest ever album. |

Anyone who doesn't rate The Clash is obviously musically retarded.
And Pet Sounds was one of the most influential albums. Ever.

I always find that it's much easier to say things are shit than it is to say why you think they're good. So I've decided to avoid doing the former. Or if I do, at least give a reason.

The Bends is better than OK Computer IMO. Whereas I got the Sex Pistols I never really liked the Clash. Then when Mick Jones went on to do BAD, I knew why

Without doubt Space Ritual by Hawkwind is the greatest ever album. Were you probably getting stoned and angsty when Space Ritual was around Reg? Primal Sream - Screamadelica. Because, as Reg said, it chimes a particular chord for a particular reason at a particular time. Not that I remember much about that time mind. |
